Just got back into playing WitE, remembered playing as Germans and having a couple hundred ground elements in the captured equipment pool by turn 7, this was with the 1.08 patch.

Have gotten back into game with latest patch and it is turn 7 with ZERO equipment captured, is this a feature that was removed?

Also in the logistics report, there is a section labeled as "population" with it then saying "500K axis population missing"

What is this?

And finally I have to ask what is the option titled "CV mode"?

You can see pools of captured equipment on the production screen if you click country name on the right.

Population report is supposed to track the number of lost manpower factories (1 factory = 50k). It may be off in games started under earlier version.

CV mode allows you to play using more accurate values on counters, that reflect with greater accuracy expected strength in combat. There are also variants which allow you to treat artillery elements as having 1 CV instead of 0 (default), and/or support elements as having 0 CV instead of 1 (default).

Many thanks for the questions and the answers. The patch notes are sometimes not clear, so please, guys, ask your questions. I posted a similar question re missing population on the steam discussions. Clearly, best avenue to get clarifications is the Matrix forums,

What happens to missing populations? Do they eventually turn up or what?

The missing populations are forever lost.
